My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

      And because it is honed it tends to look like marble up close and from a distance!

      what did you put on the floor to match the taj mahal?

      Taj Mahol is quartzite, not granite.

      I thought quartzite is the actual stone and the Taj Mahal quarts is quartzite AND a composite material binder resin a man manufactured product using real quartzite and the resin to hold it all together....... but maybe I’m wrong? That’s what iv googled anyway
